Home Minister @AmitShah's claim that the DMK has not raised the issue of Sri Lankan Tamil refugees with the Union government is incorrect. I raised the issue of Sri Lankan Tamil refugees in the Rajya Sabha as early as December 2009, demanding legal clarity and citizenship. Parliamentary records from 2009, 2010, and 2012 stand as proof.
This is not a new concern. We have consistently spoken up—without seeking credit —purely out of commitment to our people.
If seeking a personal meeting will resolve the problems of the Sri Lankan Tamil Refugees, DMK Members of Parliament will not hesitate to do so.
